Bet you can't wait eh?! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
When I picked my car up from the dealer in Germany, he told me I didn't have to run the car in, as the engine is bench run.
BUT
I tried to anyway. At the time I saw an article in EVO about their long-term test Subaru impreza, which was also brand new. They discussed running-in in the article. The article seemed to suggest not taking the car above 3 or 4000rpm for the first few hundred miles, then gradually start to use more revs over subsequent 100 miles, until maximum revs have been reached. My thoughts were if thats what they've been told to do with a Subaru, then it won't do any harm to try and do that with my Audi.
But its easier said than done! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif For the first few hundred miles I did try to take it easy, so majority of driving was in the 3000-4000rpm range. And was gentle on the car when cold etc. But there were a few instances where I failed to resist the temptation of using full revs (not when cold though).
Other thing to remember about running-in is its not just the engine that needs to be run in, but things like the brakes, gearbox, tyres and all the other engine bits and bobs.
Good luck.
